Chalk

Burning Cliff, Dorset (White Nothe behind)

We were hoping to get down to Cornwall for a paddle this weekend, but the worsening forecast kept us at home in Dorset. Instead I went for a morning paddle locally with John Gilmour, just before the strong winds kicked in.

I have never paddled close inshore along the short stretch of coast between Weymouth and White Nothe, so I wanted to have a look. It was pleasant enough, but unexciting. Passing White Nothe, we were back on familiar territory as we continued to Lulworth Cove. The sun came out right on cue and we rockhopped amongst blue water and white cliffs; spectacular.

About

During 2006-8 I researched, photographed and wrote a sea kayaking guide to the South West of England; from the Bristol Channel to the Isle of Wight. I have used this blog to keep folk updated as to my progress and to reveal some of the wonderful scenery, culture and wildlife of this little corner of England.
